Église Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Péronne, Gothic church in Péronne, France.
Saint-Jean-Baptiste Church features three naves of equal height, Gothic arches, and a bell tower that reaches 45 meters into the sky.
Built between 1509 and 1550, the church endured significant damage during World War I before undergoing complete reconstruction from 1927 to 1933.
The stained glass windows created between the world wars depict religious scenes while the 17th-century altarpiece shows the Baptism of Christ.
The church maintains regular religious services and welcomes visitors during opening hours and special heritage events throughout the year.
The reconstruction incorporated reinforced concrete in its roof frame and gutters, marking an architectural innovation for religious buildings of that period.
